OVERVIEW

How to describe celebrant Helen Twyman-Smith… we could tell you she’s a hopeless romantic with a passion for all-things love and family, or perhaps we might mention her quick wit and great sense of humour. But we think the best way to encapsulate celebrant Helen is with a single word: Thoughtfulness. 

This creative, open-minded celebrant is attentive to her couples’ needs, and puts love and consideration into crafting their bespoke ceremony. One thing all her ceremonies include are lots of personal touches and sweet anecdotes - like the story of how you met, for example. This is so your ceremony is fun, engaging, and an enjoyable part of your wedding, not something you need to get through in order to celebrate at your reception. 

Situated in Picton, Helen loves bringing people together, and uses her outgoing personality, bubbliness, and natural confidence to lift the energy at your wedding, ensuring all guests are engaged and - if it’s your preference - shedding a happy tear or two!

“Helen was amazing. She is very professional, funny, thoughtful. My husband Brad and I were  extremely happy with Helen. She provides a very personal service. Helen went up and beyond and I cannot thank her enough for her amazing  services. Thank you Helen.” Sharon

What you can expect when working with Helen Twyman-Smith for your wedding:

 

  • Warm, caring celebrant. Helen is absolutely lovely, and genuinely cares about her couples and their happiness. When working with Helen, you’ll see she’s thoughtful, considerate, and passionate about helping you have the best possible wedding.
  • Organised and capable. Helen has a type A personality, and is consistently organised, punctual, and on top of things - you won’t need to worry about a thing with Helen around. 
  • Bespoke ceremony. Your custom ceremony will be completely unique to the two of you, with lots of personal touches, anecdotes from your journey together, and in-jokes thrown in for good measure.

 

Here’s what else you need to know about Helen Twyman-Smith.

 

  • Ceremony location. Helen works at weddings across the Southern Highlands, Macarthur, Narellan, Wollondilly, and Wollongong.
  • MC services. Hard-pressed to find a confident MC for your reception? You might like to book Helen to look after both your ceremony and reception. She's confident, well-spoken, and is very witty.
  • Other ceremonies. Helen is also available for naming ceremonies and vow renewals.

 

“We were fortunate to have Helen as our celebrant for our wedding day. Helen made the entire process so easy and fun, even when we got stressed by the enormity of planning a COVID-19 wedding in a short space of time, Helen was there, checking in with us to ask what she could take off our shoulders … Helen went above and beyond our expectations, and she did so with warmth, compassion, and a lovely sense of humour! You will be in safe and kind hands choosing Helen to be your celebrant and we could not recommend her highly enough.” Colette

Where do we even begin! We knew Helen was the right choice for us the moment we saw her bring our dear friends together on their wedding day. When we reached out to her for our own wedding, she took the time to truly understand who Lachlan and I are as a couple—what we value, what we represent, and what was most meaningful to us for our special day. Helen made us her priority throughout the entire journey, from the planning process to the ceremony itself. The love story she created and shared brought tears to so many, and we were overwhelmed with compliments from our loved ones on how beautifully she captured us. She matched our energy perfectly and brought such warmth and sincerity to the ceremony, making it feel so personal and genuine. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant—or person—to represent our love on our wedding day. Thank you again for contributing to our day, Helen. We appreciate you more than words can say!

Chelsea G.

Helen Twyman-Smith

Wow, Chelsea & Lachlan—your words honestly moved me to tears. Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. It was truly an honour to stand alongside you both and tell your story—your love, your energy, your values—they all shone so brightly. From the moment we connected (after Jess & Joedyn’s magical day!), it was clear how much love and intention you were pouring into your own, and I felt so lucky to be part of it. The warmth and connection in your ceremony was something really special, and I’ll always carry such fond memories of it. Thank you for trusting me with such an important role—and for being absolute gems throughout the entire journey. Big love to you both, Helen

Easiest 5-star rating I've ever given! From beginning to end, Helen ensured our wedding ceremony (including all the boring legal parts) was seamless and highly entertaining. It was uniquely us and our guests loved hearing the little quirks she had picked up about our relationship. She even learned about D&D! Thanks again Helen!

Kayla O.

Helen Twyman-Smith

Oh wow—what a review! Thank you so much, Kayla & Kaid. It was an absolute joy getting to know you both and bringing your wonderfully quirky, D&D-infused love story to life! I had such a great time crafting a ceremony that truly reflected you, and I’m beyond thrilled to hear it resonated with your guests too. Thank you for trusting me with such a special part of your day—and for that epic 5-star love! Wishing you a lifetime of critical hits, shared quests, and many more adventures together. Big hugs, Helen

April 2025

We couldn't be happier with our choice of Helen as our celebrant for our wedding at Mali Brae Farm in March 2025! From the very beginning, Helen was incredibly kind, attentive, and responsive, making the entire wedding planning process seamless and stress-free. On our wedding day, Helen delivered the most beautiful ceremony, perfectly blending humor, emotion, and pure joy. Our guests were laughing, crying, and constantly smiling throughout the ceremony. We cannot recommend Helen enough to any couple looking for a celebrant. She made our day unforgettable, and we are so grateful for the magic and warmth she brought to our special day. Thank you, Helen!

Georgia S.

Helen Twyman-Smith

Oh Georgia & Stu – you absolute LEGENDS! Your wedding at Mali Brae Farm was pure magic, start to finish. Thank you so much for your gorgeous words – I’m chuffed beyond belief. From the moment we met, I knew your day was going to be a joy-filled rollercoaster of laughs, tears, and all the beautiful chaos in between. From Stu’s “Lobster” vow (Friends fans unite!), the cheeky grandma front and centre, the moment we broke a certain sound barrier giving everyone a great laugh, and those fabulous flower brothers absolutely owning their entrance – it was unforgettable. And Georgia… that dress. WOW. So perfectly you – romantic, playful, and one-of-a-kind, just like you two as a couple. It was such an honour to stand with you both and tell your love story. Thank you for trusting me to hold that space. Wishing you a lifetime of laughter, cheeky moments, and lobster-level love 💛 Big hugs, Helen x

May 2025

Having Helen as our celebrant for our elopement was one of the best decisions we made. From the very first conversation, she made us feel completely at ease and genuinely excited about the whole process. She took the time to really get to know us, and that care and attention came through in every part of the ceremony. She created something so heartfelt and personal—it was beyond anything we imagined. My partner and I were in tears, and so were our friends. Her words were meaningful, beautifully delivered, and perfectly captured who we are as a couple. Helen guided us every step of the way, always so thoughtful and organised, which made everything feel stress-free and special. We’ll always be grateful for the love and energy she brought to our day. Honestly, we can’t recommend her enough.

Helen married us on the 16th November 2024 at Mali Brae Farm. We engaged Helen rather early, and from that moment she was attentive, professional and comforting along the journey. No matter what we needed, Helen had the answer or the solution. Helen is such a kind soul and brings such joy and fun to your ceremony! If you want your love story told in a way that will light up your friends and family, Helen is the celebrant for that! We thank Helen for everything!! Alley and Josh

Wishing you a wonderful future together and again, thanks for choosing me to be a part of your incredible day. Helen. XO

Advice for having your dog in your ceremony

Would love some advice! We def want to include our dog in our wedding ceremony! We want him as the ring bearer. Are they are any things to avoid or prepare for in advance? Thanks!

Helen Twyman-Smith

Hi there!

Having your precious pooch at your ceremony is a lovely idea and something I always find that guests get a kick out of too, not to mention the awesome photos you will have for may years to come.

A professional pet handler is something to consider as dogs can get excited and sometimes a little stressed with unfamiliar surroundings.

They will look after your fur baby as if it was their own and you will be free to relax and enjoy your very special day.

Wishing you the very best for your wedding day and future together as a married couple.

 

Hi there, I'd love some tips for dealing with unsolicited wedding advice.

I'm currently dealing with an overbearing MIL and would really appreciate some advice on how best to handle the situation. How would you suggest avoiding/dealing with unsolicited wedding advice from difficult family members?

Helen Twyman-Smith

My advice is to tell them (whoever the advice is coming from) that you love them very much and value their opinions as they are important to you both, however you will 'take it on board' and consider it with all other options.

Then thank them for their input.

This will help them to feel seen, heard and appreciated whilst giving you the the freedom to do things your way, unless they are paying for your wedding, then you might need to 'throw them a bone' on something (but not everything!)

How can I pay tribute at my wedding to my dad who's no longer with us?

Dad passed away 12 months ago. Would love some ideas how I can still include him somehow.

Helen Twyman-Smith

I'm very sorry on the loss of your Dad 12 months ago.

There are various ways in which your Dad can be honoured at your wedding, starting with a tribute in words, either by way of a poem, a reading or even few short words of acknowledgement.

You may choose to have a candle lighting ceremony with a lovely intro of words then some soft music playing as the candle is lit by you, you & your fiance or another significant family member. 

A table or ladder can be set up in the ceremony space with photographs and a candle already burning.

There is also the option of reserving a front row seat for him with a reservation sign & photo or other memorabilia.

These & more options are available, bringing a balance of reflection and celebration, specific to your individual needs and comfort.
